Constables are elected at the municipal and/or precinct level to six-year terms. Constable
elections were held in 2015 during the Primary and General municipal elections. The next constable elections will take place in 2021.

In the event no candidates seek election to constable a qualified elector of that municipality / precinct may seek appointment by circulating a petition and collecting a minimum of ten signatures of voters registered within the municipality/precinct they reside. Vacated offices are filled by a court appointed constable until the next regularly scheduled constable election to include a full six year term if necessary.
